Should I apply my lipstick last?
Most women tend to apply lipstick as the last step in their beauty routine. But actually, many make-up artists agree highlighter should be the finishing touch.
Highlighter aims to add luminosity to the skin and bring your make-up to life — so it’s impossible to tell how much you need until the rest of your face is done. But don’t be heavy-handed. Celebrity make-up artist Francesca neill says: ‘apply the highlighter where the light would naturally bounce off your skin, such as your cheekbones, bridge of the nose and cupid’s bow.’
try a stick formula which isn’t too glittery for a natural glow, such as bareMinerals Crystalline Glow Highlighter stick (£20, johnlewis.com, left).
